That the colonial power aims to stay/settle/control in the lands conquered, and extract something from them/trade with or from them.
The Swedish in the Thirty years war didn't intend to settle or claim the lands they were fighting in - they just fought against a religious enemy and for power/influence/French money. ( Pomerania is somewhat of an exception).
